Notes
Coconut Milk comes in a can and can usually be found in the Asian food isle or near the milk alternatives. When you open the can, it is separated with the thick cream rising to the top. Pour the entire contents of the can into a bowl and whisk until smooth.
Pour into a pitcher for mixing drinks. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 10 days.
Double recipe as needed.
